Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

The Employee Lounge - Here's a tip

Tip: DON'T fucking argue about tips anymore. Everyone has said everything possible a billion times. Go to the D&D thread if you're so inclined.

NEW BUSINESS: Work is sending me to Comicon this weekend to help sell some shit. While there, I'll have time to walk around and hopefully meet with Gabe & Tycho. I'll also go visit the booth that's promoting an upcoming graphic novel for which I'm currently writing the dialogue.

pheez, I seriously need to be able to kill people with my mind.

oh you need to
5:35:44
because I woke up at 5 AM
5:35:50
started work at 6
5:35:56
and didn't leave the office until 10 to 5

And this useless son of a bitch manager of some other group who's been bitter and mopey that I have a bigger desk than he has for weeks now spent most of his day playing on his black berry and surfing the Internet
5:37:04
And he took off two days prior to the weekend a week ago to visit the st. cloud facility aka play golf on the company dime
5:37:57
and if that son of a bitch gives me sass about when he receives his hand delivered print outs of his morning meeting reports one more time, I'm going to point out for the last time that I no longer do that job
5:38:45
and I know that it will be the last time, because I will tap it into his face in morse code using one of the rock paper weights Oracle gave us to celebrate our adoption of their stupid, bastard systems
5:39:50
and on that day, an angel will get her wings, for I will have experienced true happines

As I said in the previous thread, my library was having its grand opening on Saturday. They had various important people stand outside before we opened and gave speeches. Us employees waited in the lobby, and when they cut the ceremonial ribbon and let people in, our branch manager had us do the Nordstrom thing where we applauded the patrons as they entered the building.

We clapped for well over 5 minutes. We were blown away by the number of people who came in. We checked out over 4,000 items in 3.5 hours. It was crazy.
